Addington (G) Race 2

THANK YOU ANDY MCCOOK SPRINT PBD

Prize Money: $5,000

OPAWA BIRSTALL (4) finds it hard to win but has a consistent overall record, having placed 22 of 40 career runs. Continues to race well, filling the minors at the last three starts, the latest when second (17.13) at this track. Goes well out of this box with a win and eight minor placings. Key chance in this line up. WOLF BLAST WEST (6) was safely held last time out, finishing seventh at this track over 525m behind Verstappen Jewel (31.38) in a Class 2. Was a winner the start prior. Drops back to a sprint trip and is a key runner who gets his chance to atone. HOMEBUSH QUINN (3) turned spotting a big start finishing fifth (23.08) last time in a Class 3 at Ascot Park. Goes well out of this box with a win and three minor placings. Down grades in class and has to be in the mix. LOCO LOKI (7) comes into calculations after placing at this track and distance most recently. Not the quickest into stride but hits the line stoutly.

Solid performance to win by a head at Ascot Park over 390m (23.62) beating Ripslinger Fergi in Class 1 on July 22. Makes plenty of appeal on that latest effort.
